AS PER WEBSITE

 

It took nature, millions of years to form this solid fuel and the ease with which it is being used today, throws new light on the role coal plays in the lives on a day-to-day basis. This is the story of an organization and its people whose dreams helped propel the economy of a country....

 

What began three decades ago as a wholesale distributor of steam coal to small volume customers, is today, a Rs. 7.5 billion (US $ 160 million), 25 office giant that employs 400 team members and uses state of the art technology to transform coal into clean fuel for electricity, cement and steel industries. 

 

One of the largest importers of coal, the group supplies coal, both indigenous and imported to various blue chip companies in almost all sectors where coal is used either for heat or power generation. The group imports from most of the coal mines in the world, and has the ability to supply varieties of coal, making it the perfect one stop shop for customers tailor made needs. 

 

GUIDING LIGHTS

 

Mr. G. S. Bhatia, the patriarch, is the Founder and Chairman of the BCC Group. He is also the Managing Director of Bhatia International Limited. The Group companies are Associated Transport Company and BCC Finance Limited, involved in logistics and financing, lease and hire purchase, respectively.

 

Mr. S. S. Bhatia is the Vice - Chairman of Bhatia International, and plays a vital role in all group companies.

 

Mr. M. S. Bhatia, Director of Bhatia International looks after the Indigenous Coal and Logistics Management.

 

Mr. G. S. Bhatia, Mr. S. S. Bhatia and Mr. M. S. Bhatia possess a wealth of practical experience in profitable coal trading. Under their able guidance, the company has developed a young team of committed and dynamic professionals in International Trade who monitor day-to-day activities and strive to provide customer - oriented quality service.

 

Mr. Aman Bhatia, the young, new face of the company is being groomed to lend strength to the organization.

 

ANY COAL, ANY TYPE, ANYTIME

 

Through expansion and diversification, Bhatia International has evolved into a multi-faceted producer of coal. The company's research and development facilities are exclusively devoted to maintaining high quality standards of coal. Whatever be the type of coal, how much ever the quantity and wherever in the country, and order of coal is promptly delivered at any given time. Besides, the company advises clients on improving production efficiency, and reducing costs, helps procure finance for them and even clears goods faster.

Completely backward and forward integrated, Bhatia International is a one-stop-shop for coal procurement in the country. 

 

Says Mr. G. S. Bhatia, Chairman and Managing Director, "It gives us immense pride to say that all client needs are met under one roof. The client saves precious time and effort with us. We are not just in the business of supplying coal but also offer end-to-end solutions to all the clients."

 

UNDER ASH GLOWS THE FINEST COAL

 

Coal, the primary source of energy in India, was the core of Bhatia International's business started by Mr. Kripal Singhji Bhatia. His vision is the key to the Bhatia's runaway success in the coal business. Therefore, the romance with coal goes much beyond financial considerations. It's more of a sentimental attachment. There is a strong sense of ownership to keep the coal free from dirt and impurity and maintain its timeless appeal. 

Bhatia International is wholly devoted towards quality and value-addition. Since coal contains a mix of impurities viz. rock and dirt, it needs to be cleaned and traded by the process known as "Coal Washing" before it reaches the end-user. "Coal Washing" not only reduces ash but also brings down pollution levels caused by impurities. Bhatia International started its first washery at Wani in Maharashtra with a capacity of 3 million tonnes per annum. At Wani, the company is using the heavy media drum separator technology. For quality consistency, it has deployed as online ash monitor. Maharashtra State Electricity Board (MSEB) and various other industries benefit from it. 

 

Other Bhatia International Projects of coal washery are a 4 million tonnes washery at Ghughus in Maharashtra which is in the advanced stage of construction and another which has a similar capacity at Korba (Chattisgarh) for which land has been acquired and the order for long delivery items has been placed.

The company has entered into agreement for technology and equipment supply with KHD Humboldt Wedag AG of Germany. The Batac Jig Technology will be used at the Ghughus and the Korba washeries.

 

In the years to come, Bhatia International plans to have washeries around Singreni and Mahanadi Coalfields

 

A GLOWING FUTURE – BHATIA INTERNATIONAL’S FIRST COKE OVEN PLANT

 

Having developed core competency in marketing imported and indigenous coal to different industry sectors countrywide and making expertise and source available for economic procurement of inputs required for manufacturing of Coke, Bhatia International has decided to put up a LAM (Low Ash Metallurgical) Coke Oven Plant with a capacity of 0.085 million tonnes per annum in Tamilnadu. In close proximity of ports and consumers of end-products. An edge over other manufacturers in the same business. 

 

The Plant is based on proven indigenously developed technology, and incorporates certain additional features, namely Pusher, Cutter, Quenching Car, Charging Car, Conveyor, Stamping, Hopper, etc. not installed in the conventional Coke Oven Plant.

 

LAM Coke is the basic fuel for iron and Steel Industries, Foundries, Zinc and other heavy Chemical Industries. Due to the wide-spread usage of LAM Coke, the demand-supply gap will continue to grow in the future. Bhatia International is ready for the challenge!

 

LIGHTING NEW HORIZONS

 

Bhatia International is now spreading its wings to sell coal on C&F basis within India and to other countries. It has recently opened offices in Indonesia and Dubai.

 

It has set the tone by setting up its first coke oven plant, and is planning to acquire exclusive mining blocks. Moreover, efforts in the washery segment continue with the expansion of existing capacities, as wall as setting up of new ones. To add, Bhatia International is also exploring the possibility of setting up independent power plants for optimum utilization of coal rejects from washeries. 

 

It is and has always been Bhatia International's endeavor to stay ahead of competition by thinking ahead about changing consumer needs.
